I have two worksheets' data. Worksheet Tags. Worksheet Records.

Only Worksheet Tags has data in col P.

Worksheet Tags has only SOME of the same data in col A that Worksheet Records has in col A.

With matching data in col A, whatever I can do to copy Worksheet Tags' data in col P, inserting it
to Worksheet Records' col P (on same row where matching A col data lives), is what I need.

Changes need to happen only in Worksheet Records.

To illustrate, NOW:-----------------------------------

Worksheet Tags
APC
1
12345T, R, F, G, V
2
67890R, T, Y, U,
3
55432T, R, F, G, V
4
5

LATER:-------------------------------------------------------------

Worksheet Records, with Worksheet Tags' col P data, only on rows where their col data matches.

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Re: This is easy: Find matching data in 2 wkshts, copying/pasting data from same-row col P to the others col P

In column P of your results, why are the first and third rows showing as A, B, C, D, E rather than T, R, F, G, V?

If that is a mistake, you could use a VLOOKUP formula, within an IFERROR to blank any where no match is found - like this:
=IFERROR(VLOOKUP(A1,'Worksheet Tags'!A:P,16,FALSE),"")

If the sheet isn't actually called Worksheet Tags, substitute the actual name here. Put the formula in P1 and copy down the sheet.
